I love this castle for the imaginative possibilities. It also teaches that certain things go in certain places. But that is the teacher side of me.

Fashion Headbands

This is a gift that keeps on giving. Not only do they have their own personalized headband, but they made it themselves. With 10 satin headbands, assortment of ribbons, rhinestones, feathers, some butterflies and flowers. Have a pajama night and let the girls each create their own headband. Do you have to babysit 2 nieces at a time. Get this, two brown paper bags, write their names on a bag and divide the headband and accessories in two. No fighting.

This is a perfect way to teach your daughter her shapes and colors. How to group things together, put all circles together, plates together and anything else you can think of. This is a perfect first baby puzzle, teaching her that shapes fit in shapes. Ask for the yellow plate or put everything that has yellow in it together. As a pre-school teacher I just love this toy.

The toy is suitable for 6 months and older. I would buy it for a girl from one year up, they will enjoy packing and unpacking. From a year old you can teach them the number one. Give me one fork, one toy. At the age of two the number two etc.

I would by this for myself for my theme table on pets. It will teach your little girl to keep things together. There is a lot that can be taught. How to look after your dog. Where do dogs sleep, what do they eat and the grooming of your dog. Rough and smooth, soft and hard. I tend to look at toys from a teaching point of view, and how much play learning is in a toy. This toy has both. Spend time with your child while she is playing with this and talk about everything, use the words like kennel, dog brush, fluffy dog, hard bone, round ball, food dish etc. Her vocabulary will increase.

Creativity For Kids It's My Life Scrapbook Kit

On the box it says for children 7 years and up. If possible get a disposable camera to go with gift. Young girls are now starting to question themselves and where they belong. This will help them see themselves as just perfect. It is a great way to start them off on making a diary of their lives.

I love this for so many reasons. You can tell stories with it, children learn shapes make pictures and it stimulates the child's imagination. As a pre-school teacher I am shocked to see how many children do not have an imagination. They might pretend to be singers, and sing the songs the singer sings, ask them to make up their own song and they cannot.

For very shy children this is great in bring themselves out. For the storyteller they can tell hundreds of their own stories. The creative child lives in a world where they can create and create. For the rest of the children great for those 'I am bored' days.

This interactive Kitty just loves to play. She can pounce, purr and she actually sees and follows your movements. Her eyes will change color to indicate what mood she is in. This kitty has touch sensors in her whiskers, head, ears and cheeks. When you pet her she will respond with purrs that you can feel. She will even nuzzle against you for attention. She will entertain you with songs, dance and perform her secret kitty tricks. Her curious nature will let her wander off if she does not get any attention.
